Club history
Sporting Club Thamesmead was founded from the collaboration between Thamesmead Town Youth and Seven Acre and Sidcup Senior Club.The formation of the new club has allowed the development of the youth section. We have expanded from a few teams playing in the Kent Youth League and Selkent to having teams from all ages. The formation has also secured our superb playing facilities at Bayliss Avenue. A new development of the Bayliss Avenue ground began in May 2009.
